“BANGAIZA NA MZUNGU”: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF LAWS AND POLICIES AND THEIR EFFECTIVENESS IN THE PREVENTION, SUPPRESSION AND PUNISHMENT OF SEX TOURISM INVOLVING THE YOUTH IN MOMBASA, KENYA

Abstract

Kenya. It deals with all aspects of the industry from various perspectives using modern research methods and techniques (especially the Women’s Law, Grounded Theory and Human Rights based Approaches) to enhance the reliability of the findings. Of particular concern are the ‘lived realities’ of exploited and vulnerable communities and the manifest impunity of sex tourists from Europe and the rest of the world. The research is pro-active and offers solutions to the problem that are both legislative and social.
